Simulation of Interaction and Self-assembly of Magnetically Decorated Particles — Sibylle Gemming, •Maximilian Neumann, and Aaron Steinhäußer — TU Chemnitz, Chemnitz, Germany

Magnetic particles with the ability to self-assemble allow for the creation of complex structures from simple parts while retaining malleability, enabling easy manipulation through external influences (e.g. magnetic fields). By arranging permanent magnets along the edges of particles in specific patterns we can assign (multiple) unique patterns to different species of particles without introducing additional geometric limitations. This kind of magnetic assembly schemes improves the selectivity between different types of particles and promotes fixed orientations between those on assembly. Our work shows different simulations of assembly schemes with a focus on finding optimal parameters to maximize interaction and selectivity.
